Khaya (African mahogany), crown cut: a warm pinkish red-brown with a smooth, even texture and soft crown figure.
Botanical name: Khaya spp.
Khaya is a quiet, even mahogany with a fine texture. A softer, more even alternative to sapele. Grown in West Africa.
Also held as edging. Leaves are generally available from 2500 to 3600 mm long. 3600 mm is always in short supply and needs its availability checked before it is specified. Natural timber, so it never repeats and colour and figure vary log to log: match a continuing job to the original order rather than to this page.
